We leave tomorrow and do plan on coming back; we enjoyed our stay here! The Bucatini Carbonara was absolutely delicious. The Beef Nachos were delicious, though a bit salty and I am a big salt lover. Danielle and Colleen are excellent bartenders and Adion is great support. There was another wedding happening tonight, but we did still meet locals and they were all just as friendly and lovely as the others we have met. Small world, we met folks from most of the places we have lived around the USA. Notable: They have a Touchtunes music Jukebox! They're hard to find these days but I love them. also notable, it's listed under Rumbling Bald not Legends Restaurant.

View is the best part of eating here! Food and drinks are good but you definitely pay resort prices. Service was ok but there was a wedding there today so am guessing they were a little short staffed.

This place is on the Rumbling Bald Resort property. You must be staying at the Resort in order to obtain a pass for access. The location is exceptional as you're right on the water. I went for lunch on the Friday before the 4th of July it was not busy at all. I had the garden salad with grilled chicken, it was a meal! My sever was Randal behind the bar she was doing a fine job. I wanted to sit on the patio but everyone else had the same idea! Lots of free parking.

Food was great! We liked every dish we had. Service was quick. Our server was attentive, nice and brought drinks to go without us even having to ask! We sat outside and the view was great. The atmosphere inside was chill and relaxing. Highly recommend. We also did a to go order the next day and sat on the beach at the lake and ate. Our order again came out quick, fresh and delicious.
